The RED HATTERS made the news....

Yep pictures and all. When we met this month, we were having dinner at the Tin Star, across the street from the Court House in Linden TX. It seems they were having a BIG trial of some sort and there were reporters all over the place. Well one wandered into the Tin Star and saw our little group in all our glory (and Red Hats).

He came back to our table and introduced himself (when he quit laughing) and asked us what the hell we were doing out of the "home". We invited him to sit a spell and have dinner with us. Well, one thing led to another and he took pictures and wrote a lot of notes and....

We were all "spot-lighted" in the Cass County section of the Texarkana paper this week. Great article. The article was hillarious. I think he was actually listening to us talk (unfortunately he printed most of it!  :)). He referred to me as the "comic" of the group - don't know where he got that one.

But the kicker of the article (and she'll have trouble living it down for years to come) he wrote about my 75 year old sister-in-law, "For a "riotous" good time call Mary Lynn at 903-XXX-XXXX (her actual number)". I told Mary Lynn (being the "comic" of the group) that I'm buying a hundred copies of the paper and cutting out the article and posting it in every "men's" bathroom from Linden to Texarkana with her phone number highlighted.  ;D ;D ;D

Oh well, I'm resting up for our next "riotous" night out on the town. Can't wait to see who shows up. I have a whole new outfit for it and am "designing" a new hat. Let's see - May/ Flowers... yep must have lots of flowers..... ummmmm.....

Yeah well, as I learned in Nashville, should an initial attraction find myself eased up next to you, sit my butt down right there for the next six hours and don't move!    8-)    ;)     :-*

So where the hell is the link to the story, so that we can read it?

SHEESH, woman!!!  Quit being so damn senile, ya cantankerous, ornery old broad!

PS:  It is SO good to see MOC back with his GREAT smilies!!

Ok, I found the Texarkana Gazette online and searched for "red hat liden".  

Nothing...  I'll bet that's what her last CTScan showed too  :o

I'm beginning to doubt the whole sorted tale  ;)

-Dennis-

It was in the CASS COUNTY part of it.... Ya gotta look in the right place dummy..... I can't remember the exact date, but it was a doozy... I think it was the 15th, but you know how senile I am (according to Chuckles).... Anyhow the picture was in "living" color and Mary Lynn's phone number was in there so when you fine it -for a "good time"...... :)

Yeah well, I remember at the dinner when you pulled that "straight line" stuff on me and together we convinced Dave that we'd been married in a "former" life and were having a family feud over dessert or something. Both with a straight face.. I think even Mel was believing us - You were pretty hillarious yourself... :-*

I guess that proves that the ad generator DOES pull its ad from the contents of the text!
